2019 consultation
As an early step toward creating a new planning scheme that reflects our community’s vision for Ipswich, council sought community feedback on the Statement of Proposals (including draft Strategic Framework) in May to June 2019.
The Statement of Proposals and Interactive Mapping presented information about the proposed policy direction and land use strategies and approaches as a basis for seeking early informal input from the community, state government agencies and other stakeholders to guide the next phase of drafting a detailed new planning scheme for Ipswich.
Feedback received during the early Statement of Proposals consultation was considered and adopted by council and has helped inform the detailed drafting of the new planning scheme. This feedback is outlined in the Consultation Report.
Mapping that was associated with the Statement of Proposals (including the draft Strategic Framework) can be obtained by contacting the City Design Branch on 3810 6666.
